About me

You could call me a senior software engineer but I prefer software problem solver. I enjoy simple bug hunts as well as setting up complex distributed systems.

I am very passionate when it comes to open source, in particular Linux Mint and Eclipse. I am a regular donor for both projects and have been creating short tutorials on Linux Mint and Eclipse since 2016.

PC gaming has been a hobby for a very long time. Since 2017 I run a small youtube channel focused on Warframe game tutorials. It is very rewarding to see people from all over the globe appreciate this content.
